Sommetrics can market sleep apnea system in Canada

SAN DIEGO – Sleep quality products company Sommetrics has received the green light to market its aerSleep system in Canada to people diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea. “Obtaining Health Canada’s approval for aerSleep is a major milestone for us,” said Dr. Richard Rose, CEO of Sommetrics, in a statement. “It’s a validation of our technology and a vital step in our commercial growth, and lays the groundwork for achieving our mission of improving the quality of sleep for people worldwide.” The aerSleep system utilizes Sommetrics’ proprietary aer technology, which applies negative external pressure to gently maintain an open airway during sleep. The system’s soft collar and integrated silent vacuum pump allows sleep in virtually all positions, has no hoses or mask, and is non-invasive, comfortable, portable, cordless, and easy to use and maintain.
